Cwfen release new music video for ‘Whispers’
CWFEN have released a new music video!
The video is for Whispers, and it is taken from the Scottish doom/gothic band’s debut album Sorrows, which was released in May last year, via New Heavy Sounds.
Serving as a live document of the band’s extensive 2026 touring cycle, the video captures CWFEN performing across Finland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Ireland, alongside atmospheric footage of northern Europe filmed from the band’s tour van. Shot and edited by Amy Greenbank, the clip showcases the raw intensity of the track and its evolution into a live favourite following the band’s breakout year.
Speaking about the release, lead vocalist and guitarist Agnes Alder shares, “it’s taken a while to feel comfortable releasing Whispers as its own thing. The song itself, lyrically, came from a very personal place, in contrast to the broader themes elsewhere on the record. This, for me, is a song that cuts right to the bone; it might not be too obvious in the lyrics themselves, but it’s taken a year of seeing the fans respond to it, watching it become one of their favourites, to really have the courage and the confidence to give it some of the love it deserves.
The screams weren’t planned. They weren’t on the first version, but when we went back into the studio after a few weeks, that’s what had to come out, so what you hear in this song is the depth of that feeling. It’s one of the most cathartic, tender, and ultimately visceral songs on the album, and deciding to release it now feels like the acceptance of a direction in my songwriting that I feel ready to explore on the next record.
We were so lucky that our Creative Scotland funding allowed us to take this tour and to bring Amy Greenbank with us. We got to work with an incredibly talented videographer, and we made a friend for life. She’s someone who will always be part of the CWFEN family. We made incredible memories on this tour and it’s so lovely to see some of them here.”
Guitarist Guy DeNuit adds, “following an unexpectedly busy and wonderful 12 months since the release of Sorrows, we’re proud to share our new video for Whispers. This song has become a live favourite with the band and audiences, and we are so fortunate to have had this documented and beautifully presented by our videographer and dear friend, Amy Greenbank.”
